An AMD Ryzen 7 4700G benchmark surprises by beating the Ryzen 7 3800
AMD Ryzen 3000 processors are being a true best seller, taking Intel processors by storm. Currently the company is found working on the Ryzen 4000 and the new generation of APUs. Ryzen 4000G APUs will be based on the Zen2 @ 7nm architecture. The top-of-the-range APU will be the Ryzen 7 4700G, which in a benchmark would have shown better performance than expected.
Regarding the new generation of APUs, not much was expected by continuing to integrate Vega architecture graphics. The only thing that changes with respect to the Ryzen 3000 (Zen + @ 12nm) are precisely the processor cores. It seems that the company will continue to bet on the Vega architecture instead of RNDA for its APUs.

On this Ryzen 7 4700G APU, it should be noted that it will have 8 cores and 16 threads working at a base frequency of 3.6GHz and will arrive in Boost mode at 4.45GHz. It also has a Vega 8 iGPU with 512 Stream Processors @ 2.1GHz. This APU is complemented by 8MB of L3 cache and a 65W TDP.
Roughly this APU from AMD is a lean version of the Ryzen 7 3800X. This AMD processor has a base frequency of 3.9GHz and comes in Boost mode at 4.5GHz. Note that the Ryzen 7 3800X has 32MB of L3 cache, while the Ryzen 7 4700G only has 8MB of L3 cache.
An interesting fact is that the APU features a monolithic core design, while the Ryzen 7 3800X CPU is based on chiplets. Being a monolithic APU, performance is improved over a chiplet-based solution.
Under Cinebench R20 the APU got 5.102 points, while the Ryzen 7 3800X hovers around 5.000 points. While in Cinebench R15 the APU scores 2.168 points, while the Ryzen 7 3800X barely reaches 2.100 points. We see a minimal but very important difference.

This cpu is perfect for anyone who wants power and at the same time an entry-level graphics card together, in addition to being able to add even up to an rtx 2080 ti without bottleneck problems.
This APU is perfect for someone who wants high-end CPU-level performance and an entry-level graphics card at a reasonable price for what it comes with, and can be combined with an RTX 2080 Ti for high-ultra graphics. In my opinion, it's a good move by AMD.
the problem is going to be precisely that the price costs what it yields the filtered prices indicate that it will cost the same as the R7 3700X
